Forza Motorsport 7

I tried PC2 and Forza demo and I think Forza looks better and feels more polished. The driving itself is more fun and the sense of speed is also better. Maybe it's just me but PC2 feels weird and "boxy", collisions are just off, like I'm crashing toy cars.

Having said that, Forza is just too expensive, I might get it in a couple of months (too many games to play, too little time) but most likely not the Ultimate. It'll be the same deal as with Horizon. They'll announce the expansion pass that has to be bought separately and there will be car packs that the car pass won't cover.
Loved Horizon 3 (and still do) but the prices are a bit too much.
 
Caved and got the Ultimate version. Project Cars 2 is very nice and that, but Forza is more arcade and fun

I refunded my Deluxe Project Cars 2, it's a superb game but I just know I'll play Forza 7 more plus I can't be bothered to dust off my aging G25 so using the PS4 controller will suffice.

I'll probably grab the Ultimate edition like i did with Horizon, it's a lot of money but I've had hundreds of hours in that game and still play it.
 
Demo is trash. Looks very average even @ 4k maxxed out. Handling is solid but those gfx are just way too dated for me to bother with this. 5 years ago it might have looked passable now it looks very old compared to Project Cars 2 this is lagging a long way behind graphically (probably held back by the XB1-X dated hardware!).

Selling my PC2 after 3 days, I find it so boring and frustrating. The Entry level 100bhp Ginetta seasons nearly had me hanging myself with boredom, then along came the Clio's with rear ends that step out whenever you touch the brakes, the handling while meant to be less Arcady than FM7 is just utter tripe on a controller - cars have handling characteristics that are nothing like real life. Really looking forward to FM7 little things while playing it put a smile on my face, going to hold out for the XBONEX version though as I want to play it relaxing downstairs in "4k" with HDR 58".

As for graphics, I'd put them on par with each other - there's hardly anything in it.

Grab the digital version on either Xbox or Windows store - you'll be able to play it on both! :)
 
I can't decide whether to get this or Project Cars 2? What's everyone else's thoughts?

I'm erring towards Forza 7. I never really played the first project cars much as I found the multiplayer kind of clunky whereas I reckon this will be better. Plus if I buy it digitally I can run it on PC and Xbox which is a nice benefit.

It'd be interesting to hear from anyone who's played both for the purposes of comparing them?
 
I would have liked to keep Project Cars 2 as it ran really well on my PC but I couldn't find a decent controller setup so I was wrestling the controls as well as the tracks. The game by all accounts is very good with a lot of depth.

I've opted to go for Forza 7 as the demo ran smooth, the graphics were on par with PC2 although F7 does seem to have better scenery (it also had great control using the PS4 one)

First video is a comparison PC2 and F7 - Other video is the PC demo of F7 all three tracks.

Get both I did, PC2 for VR and FM7 to mainly play in the lounge.

You can get FM7 cheap from Russia, think you can get it for £22 and PC2 from Amazon for £31.

Also bought a Thrustmaster TX so it will work on both systems.

Must admit always loved Forza, from the original 'Forza Motorsport' which I still have installed on my softmodded Xbox OG.

Have a touch of man-flu at the moment so not had the chance to play much of either yet.

Forza for arcadey fun and a better career. Pcars for a bit more real and less single player career focused.
 
Can't get a set up I'm comfortable with on my g27, maybe its just the porsche is super twitchy, ended up playing F1 2017 all weekend instead :D

How do you go about ordering it from Russia. Is it on a cd keys site or Microsoft's own?

Check here: https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/xb...-play-anywhere-2527-xbox-store-russia-2792893

Not sure on this myself, not keen on sticking my card details into a Russian site and I'm not keen on telling MS I'm Russian to redeem the points and buy the game. Sure it's likely fine and normally I would give it a go but might just go all in for the ultimate and regret it later, haha.
